Amnesty calls on Iran to disclose fate of hundreds of detained Ahwazi Arabs |
2018-11-14 |
[ENGLISH.ALARABIYA.NET] Unconfirmed reports on Sunday suggested that Iran may have executed more than 22 people, accusing them of being behind the ISIS-claimed attack on a military parade in the southwestern Iranian city of Ahwaz last October. "If confirmed, the secret executions of these men would be not only a crime under international law but also an abhorrent violation of their right to life and a complete mockery of justice, even by the shocking standards of Iran’s judicial system," said Philip Luther, "It is difficult to imagine that these individuals could have received a fair trial within merely a few weeks of their arrests, let alone had the opportunity to appeal death sentences," Luther added. |
